St. Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha, 2nd

A guidebook for true explorers, the south Atlantic islands of St Helena, Ascension and Tristan da Cunha are isolated and therefore a fascinating destination for travellers who enjoy a completely different vacation. Their remote location has led to a host of endemic plant species and large seabird colonies, meaning the islands appeal to botanists and birdwatchers the world over.Richard Grundy is a geographer who has taught in many schools including St Mary's School in the world's most remote community of Tristan da Cunha. Robin Liston is a journalist and public relations consultant. He writes on a wide range of subjects including travelling on cargo and cruise ships. Mike Huntley works for the Foreign Commonwealth Office as the administrator for Tristan da Cunha.
